We'll ask them how they did it and get some new tactics to try. First up is filmmaker Alexandra Boylan. She's raised money for 8 feature films, and all have made their money back. How did she do it?

We dig into the story of the brand new feature film "Switched" with writer & producer Alexandra Boylan. She also traces her remarkable story and where her heart for healing comes from on the vitally important issue of bullying.

Alexandra Boylan is an award-winning LA filmmaker, where she has built a solid resume of independent films, short subjects, and music videos. Utilizing the skills obtained on dozens of movie sets and harnessing the passion that fuels her, she formed her own production company. MirrorTree Productions, which has produced numerous feature films, including“Home Sweet Home” and “At Your Own Risk.” Her film company Mustard Seed Entertainment's film “Catching Faith” had a two-year run on Netflix and is currently streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime. Her film “Wish For Christmas” sold to Pure Flix Entertainment and Universal Studios Home Entertainment. Her new movie, "Switched" was awarded the winner of the Kiaros Pro MovieGuide award for best screenplay, and was released in September of 2020 to rave reviews. Alexandra just completed principal photography on her new family film “The Inheritance” in Columbus, Georgia.

Alexandra Boylan and Andrea Polnaszek are real-life sisters who teamed up to bring "Switched" to fruition, a movie about a character named Cassandra who is tired of being bullied. So, she prays that her nemesis has to walk a day in her shoes. When her prayer is answered in an unexpected way, Cassandra and her nemesis find themselves..."Switched." Listen to the powerful story behind the film!

SWITCHED is a family film with a faith message. A bullied teen girl prays her high-school bully would know what it is like to walk in her shoes. Her prayer is answered in an unexpected way. The film shows the impact of bullying and how kindness can spread further and build people up. Alexandra Boylan grew up as a pastor’s kid and was limited in what she could watch so she decided to create Christian themed films. She has a strong testimony of faith and God directing her life. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Trying to contain the passion of Alexandra Broylan is like trying to catch and bottle the wind. You just can't do it no matter how hard you try. Alexandra is one of those people who is just on fire for God and she just can't be put out and that's the kind of attitude it takes to be a successful Christian film producer in Hollywood. Alexandra's an overnight sensation that took 20 years to happen as she took the time to listen to Jesus and do things His way in His will and she is reaping the benefits of her hard work through her movies. From living a year in her Toyota Corolla, to having a home and then selling everything to finance her movie (and living back on the road again) Alexandra jumped into the passion that God gave her with both feet and burned the bridge behind her. If you're in need of inspiration, if you're in need of hope and encouragement you have come to the right place. Listen and then be inspired to follow what God has put into your heart.Connect with Alexandra at www.mustardseedent.com and watch her movies on Netflix, Hulu and Pureflixhttps://switchedmovie.com/https://www.wishforchristmasmovie.comhttp://www.catchingfaith.comhttp://www.atyourownriskmovie.com

In Episode 190, Trev and AJ reconnect in person (!!!) to chat about AJ’s Digital Actor Workshop, Trev’s continuing journey with Body Beast (fitness geek alert), and a listener-prompted discussion about “permission-based research” – or, how to eloquently (or not) solicit trust from potential collaborators. Then Trev sits down for the third and final part of his chat with actress and producer Alexandra Boylan to chat about the nitty gritty of making and distributing an independent feature film, and choosing the work (rather than waiting for it to choose you). Total running time: 1:06:33.

In Episode 189, AJ shares about a unique career situation, and Trev sits down with actress and filmmaker Alexandra Boylan for Part 2 of his chat about making her “pixie stick movie,” why NOT to have high expectations or investors on board for your first projects, and why your film’s poster is the most crucial asset it has. Total running time: 47:12.

In Episode 187, Trev and AJ chat about the “writing on the wall” – whether or not the CA drought combined with the growing trend of out-of-stage productions is a sign of things to come – as well as some thoughts on getting into the industry at a later age, and what’s to be gained from hitting up acting and modeling conventions.Then Trev sits down with actress/producer Alexandra Boylan for the first of a must-hear three part chat on how she went from the damaging “pick me mentality” to actor/director for hire – with two sold scripts and completed features under her belt. Total running time: 59:12.
